Why won't my iphone 4 let me look at my messages?

Its gone on for 2 days now, i can look at my texts for a bit but then after a while when i click on my messages the page just freezes. I have tried turning my phone off completely by holding my home button and power button and after that it usually works for about 10 minutes before i have to redo it.

Take it to the apple store and they will assist you

Hold the home button and the power button at the same time until it shuts down
that should fix it

  • Why won't my iPhone 4s let me send picture messages? It gives me the option to send pictures and will let me choose a photo but when i press sent the little bar at the top fills half way then stops and a little red exclamation mark comes up next to the picture saying not delivered. Is there something wrong with the phone or can a change it my self in the settings?

  • My Iphone5 won't let me send normal text messages? (tmobile)? I just got the Iphone 5 in tmobile. And I can send imessages, but I can't send text messages. I can receive them, but it won't let me reply. It says "not delivered". Help. I already looked at settings and it says that the mms or what not is on, so I'm not really sure of the problem.
